Co-Designing the Family Caregiver Ontario Perception of Care Tool

After two years of voicing their concerns about the adoption of the OPOC-MHA Non-Registered Family Member/Significant Other/Supporter Questionnaire, OFCAN members were invited to work with Provincial Systems Support Program Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) OPOC Implementation Team to engage in the revision of this tool.

The work has been underway since June and the goal is to have a final product by June 2018.  Since the beginning of this undertaking, steps have been taken to ensure community sector family member representatives are able to fully engage and participate in this process.
